Initial TrainingA workshop is only the beginning of learning MI.

Learning Goals:

1. To understand the underlying spirit and approach of MI.

2. To recognize the reflective listening responses and differentiate them from

other counseling responses.

3. To be able to provide at least 50% reflective listening responses during a

conversation.

4. To recognize change talk and be able to differentiate commitment

language from other types of change talk.

5. To list and demonstrate several different strategies for eliciting client

change talk.

A workshop without follow-up is unlikely to make a significant difference in

practice.

Research indicates that personal feedback and performance coaching are

necessary to effectively integrate MI skills. 4

but I’m not sure what to do”

Stage III – Preparation

“Yes, there’s a problem and I’m going to change it”

Principles of Person-Centered Change

1. Our services exist to benefit others.

2. Change is fundamentally self-change.

3. People are experts on themselves.

4. We don’t make change happen.

5. We don’t have to come up with all the solutions

6. People have their own resources to effect change

7. Change requires a collaboration of experience.

8. Start where the client is: “Seek first to understand.” (Covey)

9. A conversation about change is not a power trip.

10. Motivation is evoked, not installed.

11. It’s not a change-goal until the client adopts it.21

MI and Change

• What is Motivational Interviewing?

• What is it for?

• Why would I want to learn this?

• How would I use it?

“Things do not change; we change.” – Henry David Thoreau

“MI is about arranging conversations so that people talk

themselves into change.” – MI-3, p.4

“Motivation is a fire from within.

If someone else tries to light that fire under you,

chances are it will burn very briefly.”

- Stephen R. Covey, (1932-Present)

Why Do People Change?

• People change voluntarily only when:

– They become interested in or concerned about the need

for change.

– They become convinced that the change is in their best

interests or will benefit them more than cost them.

– They organize a plan of action that they are committed to

implementing.

– They take the steps necessary to make and sustain the

change.

Internal Motivation

Externally motivated subjects had long term outcomes only

when they also had high levels of internal motivation

Self Determination Theory: SDT

Internal motivation is enhanced by:

• Autonomy - Freedom to choose

• Competence - Self efficacy

• Relatedness - Relationships heal

BREHM’S REACTANCE THEORY = whenever a particular behavior is threatened,

the desirability of that behavior increases.

Ex: “You can not use drugs while on probation!”

Key Concepts about Motivation

“Motivation is the application of energy to act in pursuit

of some perceived (goal).”

- Keller, 2012

“Most people trust themselves more than others. People

learn about their own attitudes by hearing themselves

talk.”

- Bem, 1972

“Change is an inside job, that flows from internal

motivation.”

- Weinstein, 200228

Page 29: WPLS Jan 2016 MI Presentation...Initial Training A workshop is only the beginning of learning MI.Learning Goals: 1. To understand the underlying spirit and approach of MI. 2. To recognize

Key Concepts about Motivation“MI is not done ‘to’ or ‘on’ someone, it is done ‘for’

and ‘with’ a person.”

- MI-3, p. 15

“A motivational conversation entails capturing

change-talk and using it in a manner that moves one

in the direction of their goals.”

- Webb, 2015

“You are a midwife, assisting in someone else’s birth.

Facilitate what is happening rather than what you

think ought to happen.”

- Tao Te Ching29

Motivational Interviewing (MI) is a directive, client-centered approach that

enhances motivation for change, by helping individuals clarify and resolve their

ambivalence about change, and by eliciting change language. It is based on the

principles of collaboration, evocation, and antonymy; while supporting self-

efficacy. This approach has shown good outcome in clinical research with

diverse client populations. It is especially effective in working with resistant

clients. This two (2) day training is designed to provide a broad overview of the

entire system of Motivational Interviewing. However, the specific focus for this

introductory session will be on conveying the spirit and major principles of the

model. Recent research has demonstrated that retention and proficiency of

practical application of MI is significantly enhanced by follow-up sessions,

which include a review of work samples and MI coaching.

Objectives of this training:

• To increase participants’ knowledge of Motivational Interviewing.

• To exhibit the appropriate application of stages of change model to the

Motivational Interviewing approach.

• To demonstrate via lecture, video, and group activities the spirit, principles,

and skill set for the application of Motivational Interviewing.

• To provide in-vivo practice of MI listening skills and methods for

recognizing and dealing with change talk. 31

Motivational Interviewing

• Layperson’s Definition:

– Motivational interviewing is a collaborative conversation

style for strengthening a person’s own motivation and

commitment to change.

• Practitioner’s Definition:

– Motivational Interviewing is a person-centered counseling

style for addressing the common problem of ambivalence

about change.

A Motivational Interviewing Parable

A traveler in ancient Greece had lost his way

and, seeking to find it, asked a man by the roadside

who turned out to be Socrates. “How can I reach Mt.

Olympus?” asked the traveler. To this inquiry

Socrates is said to have gently replied “Just make

sure that every step you take goes in that direction.”

“Being empathic is to perceive the internal

frame of reference of another with accuracy

and with the emotional components and

meanings which pertain thereto...it means to

sense the hurt or pleasure of another as he

senses it and to perceive the causes thereof as

he perceives them...”

- Carl Rogers

2. Affective: Appreciation of emotional

reactions to perceived experiences

3. Behavioral: Capacity to communicate

understanding; verbal and nonverbal

expression

• Different from “detachment”

• Not the same as “sympathy”62

Which Roadblock Error?

CLIENT INTERVIEWER

“I just don’t now whether to leave him

or not.”

“You should do whatever you think is

best.”

“But that’s the point! I don’t now

what’s best!”

“Yes, you do, in your heart.”

“Well, I just feel trapped, stifled in our

relationship.”

“Have you thought about separating

for a while to see how you feel?”

“But I love him, and it would hurt him

so much if I left!”

“Yet, if you don’t do it, you could be

wasting your life.”

“But isn’t that kind of selfish?” “It’s just what you have to do to take

care of yourself.”

“I just don’t know how I could do it,

how I’d manage.”

“I’m sure you’ll be fine.”

Techniques That Reduce Resistance

Simple Reflection

93

Page 94: WPLS Jan 2016 MI Presentation...Initial Training A workshop is only the beginning of learning MI.Learning Goals: 1. To understand the underlying spirit and approach of MI. 2. To recognize

Simple Reflection

Repeating or rephrasing what a client has said to you is

one way to let the person know that you heard them.

Client - But I can’t quit using. I mean, all of my

friends get high!

Facilitator – Quitting seems nearly impossible

because you spend so much time with others who

use.

Client – Right, although maybe I shouldn’t.

94

Page 95: WPLS Jan 2016 MI Presentation...Initial Training A workshop is only the beginning of learning MI.Learning Goals: 1. To understand the underlying spirit and approach of MI. 2. To recognize

Amplified Reflection

With this, the facilitator will want to cause the client to disagree

with what’s being said. The facilitator may exaggerate or intensify the

point in order to accomplish this, however, it is important not to over-

embellish. If the client feels threatened he or she may respond in anger.

Client - But I can’t quit using. I mean, all of my friends

get high!

Facilitator – Oh, I see. So you already couldn’t quit

because then you’d be too different to fit in with your

friends and they might not accept the “new you”.

Client – Well, that would make me different from them,

although they might not really care as long as I don’t

pressure them to quit.95

Page 96: WPLS Jan 2016 MI Presentation...Initial Training A workshop is only the beginning of learning MI.Learning Goals: 1. To understand the underlying spirit and approach of MI. 2. To recognize

Double-sided Reflection

The facilitator reflects both the current, resistant

statement with a previous, contradictory statement that the

client has made.

Client - But I can’t quit using. I mean, all of my

friends get high!

Facilitator – You can’t imagine how you could not

get high with your friends, and at the same time

you’re worried about how it’s affecting you.

Client – Yes. I guess I have mixed feelings.

“DARN-CaT”

• What is Change Talk?

• How do we know when we hear it?

We listen for and strengthen natural language expressions of

change:

D=Desire to Change (the “want to”)

A=Ability to Change (confidence)

R=Reasons to Change (argument for)

N=Needs to Change (importance)

C=Commitment to change (“I’ll try” – “I’ll do”)

and

T=Taking Steps (“I’ve done...”) 106

Summary: Motivational Interviewing

•Motivation resides in the interaction

•Motivation can be influenced

•Clients always respond with motivation toward or away from

change

•Resistance informs the therapeutic relationship

•Resistance can be reduced or increased

•A collaborative relationship facilitates change

•Clients are responsible for their progress

•Ambivalence is normal

•Resistance is a signal to respond differently

•The provider’s and the client’s expectations affect outcome

•Arguing for change creates resistance

•A primary goal of MI is to help the client explore and resolve

ambivalence

William R. Miller, Theresa B. Moyers, and Paul Amrhein (2005)

Department of Psychology, University of New Mexico

Amrhein, P.C., Miller, W.R., Yahne, C.E., Palmer, M., & Fulcher, L. (2003). Client commitment language during motivational interviewing predicts

drug use outcomes. Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology, 71, 862-878.

The CQ was developed as a brief measure of six different components of motivation for change, based on

psycholinguistic analyses of natural language (Amrhein, et. al., 2003). In order to complete the questionnaire, the

respondent must have a particular change in mind. That change is specified at the top of the questionnaire, and the

open line (__________) in each item then represents that same change. It is also possible to modify the items of the

CQ to specify a particular change. For example, “quit drinking” could be substituted for the open line in every item.

Item 1 would then read, “I want to quit drinking.” (The instructions at the top of the questionnaire would also need to

be modified.) The key word in every item is intentionally emphasized by boldface italic font in order to focus

respondents on the aspect of motivation that is being queried.

Scoring Key:

There are six subscales, each of which consists of two items. Each subscale score is the sum of responses to the two

key items. The six subscale scores can also be summed to compute a total CQ score.

Contemplation Help client see the “big

picture”, discover

discrepancies between

current behavior and

future goals, and

consider making some

lifestyle changes.

•Normalize ambivalence.

•Help the client tip the decisional balance scales toward change by:

–Eliciting and weighing pros and cons of continuing behavior

versus changing

–Examining the client’s personal values in relation to change

–Imagining the future

–Emphasizing the client’s free choice, responsibility, and self-

efficacy for change

•Elicit self-motivational statements of intent and commitment from the

client.

•Elicit ideas regarding the client’s expectations regarding treatment.

•Summarize change talk.

•Assess client’s sense of importance and confidence in changing.
